Slow Ride- Foghat

 Hike Day and Final Day 14- Just as the song goes, Slow ride take it easy. We did just that taking in the last 3 miles of the sights and sounds along the trail. Weather was perfect to just soak it all up. Below are some different shots I took today that wasn’t scenery focused.



                                                               Coffee roaster and cafe
                                                   Our last night on the Trail in Thadokoshi
                                                                        Laundry Day
                                                                         Beer on tap

                                                                            So cheap!


Lukla is a small busting village as all Trekkers start and end here, we fly out in the morning where the planes will run down a very short runway and literally drop of the edge of the mountain.
